Keep trying! Contact the Registration help line:
(312) 915-7167 –Law Registrar Office (312) 915-7221 –University Registrar Office
Hopefully this will not happen while you are registering, but if it does, keep trying until the system allows you access to register
No concessions can be made for anyone disadvantaged by a system failure, sorry.

Pre-Approved Courses Some courses require prior approval
Externships Instructor Approval Courses
Procedure for registration Complete the Instructor Approval Registration
Form from the Registration website and submit the signed approval to the Registrar
The Registrar will register you for the course

Closed Courses
Once a course is closed the only way of getting in is to keep trying! There is almost always a fluctuation in
the course enrollments during the registration period, the persistent student has the best chance of getting in when an opening occurs [especially happens on the first day of the class.]
